Inspector McDevitt deserves the thanks
all lieht-users for his clear and startling ex-
position.
The ExpeCted War.

a great many people think that the early
spring will open the European armies set
In battle array. The debate In the German
Reichstag has put Bulgaria in the shade
as the cause of war, and made 1t probable
that II will come without disguise as an
effort of France TO recover her lost territory,
1t Is not, however, safe TO put great trust
in the works of q statesman of Bismarck
demonstrated duplicity, and it may he that
he is shaking the French red rag before
the legislature simply TO get the war
measures passed that he seeks. And
failure TO enact which, Van Moltke says,
will surely cause war, on the principle that
Germany's weakness will invite attack.
There is no doubt about the earnestness
Of the German governments desire to
strengthen the army, and of the serious
ness of the apprehension of war. There is
in this alone sufficient reason to convince
the world that 1t is coming and prudent
men everywhere will govern themselves ac'
cordingly. 1t will make great difference
In business matters all over the world
which will generally be stimulated.

THE Manufacturing Record, which has
made q speciality Of statistics with regard to
Southern industrial development has lust
announced the birth OF several great enter
prises. First and greatest is the sale OF the
property Of the Woodstock Iron and Steel
company and the Admission Land and Im.
provement company, Of nniston, Alabama
These two operations, which owned large
r,n,rt OF the town OF Admission, two furnaces,
90, 900 acres OF mineral lands, &c, have sold
their property for SC, 900, 600. With the sale
arrangements were completed tor the imme.
diste construction Of two coke furnaces OF
1000 tons capacity each week, and the build
ing of a railroad from Admission to Cad en-.
Then follows long list of companies Or
gsnized with large capital for the building of
iron and steel works and the development OF
mines Of coal, iron, limestone and marble
In this connection we note that ougressman
Mcmillan, OF Tennessee, is rejoicing over the
prospect that the appropriation for Mussel
Shoals on the Tennessee river, in the river
and harbor bill, will be enough to build the
locks and dams and enable the iron men of
that region to send their product by q cheap
water route to New Orleans, ST. Louis or Pitts
burg. He goes wildly enthusiastic aud says
that this opening OF navigation will give
Tennessee and Alabama such a start that the
great interests OF Pennsylvania may within
another generation be among the things that
are past,
All OF which Is certainly surprising, If true.

Electric Light Dangers.

The coroner's inquest ON the victims Of
the Temple theatre fire, Philadelphia, has
brought out prominently several startling
facts with regard to the danger of fire from
electric light wires. Inspector McDevitt
said that moisture on board, across which
two electric light wires passed, would pro-
duce cross circuit between the wires and
set fire to the wood. He demonstrated this
before the jury, and ten minutes after the
current had been turned on an intense
white flame appeared between the wires
and left a charred line on the wood.
He then wrapped handkerchief around
the globe Of an electric light turned
on the current and soon the hand
kerchief began to smoke he
blew upon it and it burst into flame.
He broke lighted globe over an open gas
burner and the gas was lighted. He also
showed the danger that might arise from
the use Of fusible plugs not suited to the
size Of the wire. The plug should fuse
and extinguish the light as soon as the
Current becomes too strong if it does not
there is danger, and in the case of covered
wire, If too strong a current is used, the
covering takes fire. This was also shown
to the jury. He demonstrated the neces-
sity of great care in making connections,
and in conclusion said that safety from
fire depended on the skill and care of the
workmen.
These facts will be revelation to most
of the users of the electric light, and it
seems remarkable that wide publicity was
not given to them long ago.
If, as is thought probable in the case Of
the Temple fire, little steam rising from
the cellar and condensing on window sill
can cause a fire TO be kindled between
wires of the electric light, the fact is one
which should have been familiar to all
users of the light from the first. 1t cannot
lead TO the abandonment of it any more
than the fact that boilers explode can in
terfere with the use of steam, but it must
lead all intelligent patrons of the light to
take every possible precaution against this
newly discovered danger.
Inspector McDeyitt said that the great
demand for the light had exceeded the sup
ply of skilled workmen, and that for i'm
manity from fire, dependence must be
placed on reliable companies who will em-
ploy none but skilled workmen; but that
~ companies have SO long permitted facts
that of right belonged to the users of the
|iGht to remain unprecedented does not
greatly inspire confidence in any of them.

LANCASTER. JANUARY Is, 1881.
The Hanging Fashion.

Wilson, who is hanged at Norris
town for murder which he confesses, has
preserved to the last the unusual demeanor
which satisfies many persons that be is of
unsound mind. He seems quite too solicl-
tous to be considered the murderer to
make it probable that he really is one. In
these latter days it seems quite the habit to
promote to the gallows men of doubtful
guilt. II is not often that they go there,
it Is true, of their own ardent desire, and
when they do they may justly he con-
sidered cracked. If Wilson wants to
hang, though innocent, probably
most persons will think that little
harm is done in accommodating him.
But there is no propriety in making hang
ing farce or in awarding it as reward Of
merit. AS folks generally object to being
hanged, 1t is just as well to keep up the be-
lief that it is an undesirable thing. 1t
would embarrass the administration Of
Justice for hanging to cease to be dis
graceful and horrible punishment as it
surely will, if we continue our present
tendency to hang people who are not proved
guilty.
In Pennsylvania we are exceptionally
well fixed for hangings, having governor
who signs death warrants with great readi-
ness and apparent cheerfulness. Then We
have pardon board who are in unison
with the governor in this sentiment; at
least some Of them are notably the secre-
tary Of state and attorney general, who
excel the governor even in readiness 10
slay. And the board chimes in, with an
insane hanging resolution, by which they
forbid themselves to inquire again into
the facts that jury has passed upon
What pardon board is for, IL it Is not tc
secure revision of facts, is O. conundrum
TO the people. 1t is not wanted to secure a
revision of the law, certainly, which is the
supreme court 5 business and the pardon
board cannot elevate itself into legal tri.
bunal superior to the supreme court. Its
function is to say whether the convict Is
really guilty Of the offense charged, under
.>Ahe facts, and IL so whether he i,
Aally worthy Of the punishment
awarded. Simply this and nothing more
AndAin deciding this they must review
all the facts if they do their duty and
they have not time or inclination for it
they have an easy recourse in the proffel
OF their designations.
Certain it is that the pardon board ha!
not done its duty during the term Of itt
establishment. 1t is not a benefcent board
1t takes responsibility from the governor
without compensating advantages. 1t la!
been particularly efficient in hanging il
sane and innocent people or at least people
ofdoubtful sanity and guilt, of whom the
law forbids the execution.

GOVERNOR PIERCE, of Dakota, gets very
much excited in discussing the admission OF
Dakota as a state in his message to the
legislature. He says: ave have seen
people fighting to get out OF the [ uion amid
the protests Of the national government 1t
Is a novel sight to see 10000 people strug-
CLING TO get into the Union without being
needed by the government or recognized"
He wants the question whether Dakota
should be admitted IS one state or two de-
cided by vote of the people of the
territory. They would naturally vote
tor the undivided admission that would
make their state one OF the greatest In
the Union but the impression is growing
that Texas ia too big and Dskots is also very
large. 1t is said that the latter is capable Of
supporting q much larger population, as
there are no vast deserts within her borders
and the Black Hills hold mineral wealth.
The /" bad lands " OF Dakota cannot be
compared with the staked plains of Texas,
and the Indian reservations, which occupy
nearly one-third Of the territory, are said tc
be quite ss fertile rs the land which alread :
supports the $4,000 who are eager TO WELD
the power OF state in national affairs.

MR. FIELDS METHOD AGAIN.

The Oakland Enquirer is the latest pa
per to discuss Mr.. David Dudley Fields
REPRESENTATION" system. That is,
method of enforced registration, and by
which voters on registering must declare
who they wish to nominate. We have
pointed out what appear to us to be insu-
perable objections to the scheme, the chief
being the impossibility under it of preserv-
ing that secrecy of the voters desire essen
tial to perfect freedom and independence,
SO necessary to untrameled exercise of the
franchise; and secondly, that the method
of the veteran jurist would exclude from
candidacy men whom it might be very de-
sirable to take up at the last moment. The
Enquirer evidently approves Mr.. Fields
plan, but proposes as a cure for indisposi-
ton to attend the caucus and primary, that
every ticket of delegates shall have set
of explicit instructions or pledges printed
on its top. at will not then be hard to get
voters out at a primary" We confess ina
bility to understand what would be gained
by this system. The boss" would "put
up" the instructions and pledges, and
name" his delegates, just as he now does.
Nothing short of complete revolution of
public sentiment concerning the duties
men owe to the communities in which they
live, will affect bossism-that and female
suffrage would inaugurate a real reform
in basic politics, that is sadly needed in
these boss-ridden times.
